Hi everyone,

First, I used Codesys V3.5.14 with Eaton XV303 PLC.
I want to extract the current time of the PLC to used it in my programme.
Currently I already extract the date and time with the function : gettimedate().
But this function return the current date and time and for my programme I want only current time.

Can you help?
Maybe it's possible to extract the time from the function gettimedate() or extract directly the current time from my PLC.

Hmm... Not a standard CODESYS function that one. If it returns a DATE_AND_TIME just use the TO_TOD() to convert it to a TIME_OF_DAY.
If not, then the function_block getDateAndTime() from the CAA DTUtil Can get you a DATE_AND_TIME, and when .xDone is true, call the TO_TOD().

May try this

SysTimeRtcHighResGet(pTimestamp:=GetTimeResult)
SysTimeRTc.SysTimeRtcConvertHighResToDate(pTimestamp:=GetTimeResult, pDate:=Ctrl_DateTime);

Then you can use e.g
Ctrl_DateTime.wHour
Ctrl_DateTime.wMinute
Ctrl_DateTime.wSecond
Ctrl_DateTime.wMilliseconds

Hi All,

Thanks for your answers.
I have used the TOD function in my program.
